You ever hear that statement? If it seems too good to be true, it probably is? Well it is such a popular expression for a reason. Sure, you will occasionally find good deals but you really need to be careful of the deals, especially around the holidays like now.
Firmly in the too good to be true column is a company out there allegedly selling XBOX 360 Premium Bundles with like 8 games for $266. You just have to buy 5 bundles in order to get the price… The website is

While this may NOT be a scam, I don’t know for sure as I refuse to send them any money, I full believe it is a scam. The company is out of Indonesia and just look at the shipping and payment web page at
http://discountgameconsole.com/index.php?show_aux_page=2
And you see that shipping is $160 regardless of what you order be it 5 XBOX 360 Premium Bundles, 5 XBOX 360 Core Systems, or 5 Gameboys…. Odd shipping costs there don’t you think? Plus… payment is via wire transfer…
If someone has ordered one of these bundles and actually found it isn’t a hoax, ripoff, scam, whatever, you name it, let me know. I think it just has too many things adding up against it at the moment to be considered legitimate.
Oh and if you did… how do you handle the warranty?
